Seems to be a pretty nice pub. I came in for a quick lunch so didn’t really get its full vibe compared to an evening visit. Ended up going for the daily offer(Tuesday) which is their gourmet burger with onion rings, coleslaw and French fries. French fries where great and still had their skins on which I love and the onion rings were very crispy. Burger was ok, the meat was slightly over done but still tasted good with its relish.(Visit — 12/05/2015 Lunch)

The restaurant is still banging out decent meals after all these years. Serving food that for me falls between great pub food and good gastro pub. If you get on their mailing list you can get big discounts off the food bill for being a regular customer. Well worth a visit, the staff and customers are a friendly bunch.

We used to go here a lot — the service is really good and the same staff have worked there a long time, nothing’s too much trouble and simple menu substitution is easy and no extra charge. Really good :) Kitchen wise though not sure how much gets made from scratch. I’m fine with that so long as I know and the price is right, but it’s not. The sunday lunch is the same as Spoons but twice the price and no free drink. The roast potatoes, yorkies, stuffing balls and frozen veg are identical. A la carte wise we’ve always enjoyed the meals but the brought in high price isn’t a good business plan.

Recently revamped, the Old Manor is Potters Bar’s oldest building and if you show interest you’re liable to be given a guided tour! They have some good, well kept beers and an extensive wine list. The restaurant serves very good food with decent sized portions, and food is also available in the bar with a more limited menu. Service can sometimes be slow, and the bar is often packed when there is a show in the theatre opposite. Outside in the summer there is a pleasant eating area, but in the winter it becomes a bleak smoking are.
